LUCKY GIRL! Stuck?! Sketches DT Reveal

How is your December? Flying by? Christmas will be here before we know it. 10 more days....but today is time for the December 15th Stuck?! Sketches Design Team Reveal.

Here is my layout....

I have a funny story to tell about creating this layout. In November I attended a scrappy retreat weekend with my Mom, Sister & Daughter. On the Saturday night, I pulled out this sketch to start my layout. I had prepicked my papers at home. I struggled and struggled with the papers. I asked my daughter what she thought and neither of us could come up with a solution. After much deliberation, we checked the time and it was close to 1:30 in the morning. We decided to call it a night. The next day I started this layout and in no time I had finished. It wasn't the papers that were the problem...they were perfect for my photo....it was a tired brain that needed sleep!

This photo was taken a year earlier at our scrapbooking weekend when my daughter won 3 of the 5 raffle prizes!!!

Here are some closeups.....

My favourite stamp with my favourite embellishment to create.

Product List - Crate Paper paper, die cuts & stickers; Cosmo Cricket tag, Pinkfresh Studio alpha and the buttons, bling and brads are from my stash.
